Addigy® F1030 Nylon (formerly Novamid® ID 1030) - 1.75mm 500g | Covestro

Addigy® F1030 PA6/66 Nylon

Diameter: 1.75mm
Weight: 500g
Color: Black

This is a polyamide 6/ 66 filament, and was originally developed engineering plastics experts for demanding specialty applications often subjected to harsh environment and high temperatures (up to 125ºC). Adjusted to 3D-print easily, Addigy® F1030 filaments bring a unique combination of properties, including outstanding stiffness and ductility, across a range of applications. An optimized crystallization profile improves fusion, enabling parts with excellent interlayer strength and high surface quality.

Novamid® ID1030 is well-suited for durable applications requiring good mechanical properties.

Novamid ID 1030 Print Settings
These settings are recommended by Formfutura and are meant as a starting point to help find your optimal print settings. 

Note: Enclosed Printer Needed. Intermediate experience required.

Nozzle Size: ≥ 0.25mm
Layer Height: ≥ 0.1mm *First layer: 100 - 150% of first layer thickness.
Flow Rate: ± 100%
Print Temp: ± 220 - 245°C
Print Speed: Medium / High *Print speed: 50 - 100 mm/s (obeying the maximal throughput in cm3/s of the extruder). Print speed for "normal" nozzle size (0.4mm) and layer height (0.2mm), for other values print speed should be adjusted accordingly!
Retraction: Depends on printer type and filament diameter
Bed Temp: ± 60 - 120°C *Only remove printed object from print bed when print bed has cooled down to ambient temperatures, as otherwise printed part can deform severely.
Fan Speed: 0%
Surface: PEI Sheet + Magigoo PA
Heated Build Chamber: Preferred 
Enclosed Printer: Necessary
Storage and Conditioning Process

In order to prevent moisture pick up and contamination, packaging should be kept closed and undamaged. For the same reason, partially used bags should be sealed before re-storage.

Allow the material that has been stored elsewhere to adapt to the temperature in the processing room while keeping the bag closed. To prevent moisture condensing on filaments, bring cold filaments up to ambient temperature in the print shop while keeping the packaging closed.

In case the filament becomes wet, it should be dried at 80°C for at least 4hrs.

When storing the filament after printing, it is advised to seal the bag and add silica gel to the bag to keep the filament as dry as possible.
